On Wednesday, the media house announced that the 38-year old Gina Carano was no longer on the Mandalorian cast. They said that they had no plans to hire her in the future and also added that they found her social media posts “abhorrent and unacceptable.”
She played a powerful recurring character named Cara Dune and had appeared in two seasons of the series.
